"This is, to our knowledge, the most extraordinary collection of varied and fascinating academic consideration on Game of Thrones ever put to press. By bringing together an international gathering of scholars who come from a wide array of disciplines, Game of Thrones: A View from the Humanities has made a real contribution to the study of popular culture and shown the value of humane inquiry into modern works of fiction." -Elio M. García Jr. and Linda Antonsson, co-authors with G.R.R. Martin of The World of Ice & Fire "A humanistic approach to GOT. Finding bare and reasonable resemblances between Westeros, Essos and the civilizations of the ancient world." -Aurora López Güeto, Pablo de Olavide University, Seville, Spain This book reflects on time, space and culture in the Game of Thrones universe. It analyses both the novels and the TV series from a multidisciplinary perspective ultimately aimed at highlighting the complexity, eclecticism and diversity that characterise Martin's world. The volume is divided into three thematic sections. The first section focuses on space-both the urban and natural environment-and the interaction between human beings and their surroundings. The second section follows different yet complementary approaches to Game of Thrones from an aesthetic and cultural perspective. The final section addresses the linguistic and translation implications of the Game of Thrones universe, as well as its didactic uses. This book is paired with a second volume that focuses on the characters, violence and warfare in Martin's universe.

He has co-edited The Present of Antiquity: Reception, Recovery, Reinvention of the Ancient World in Current Popular Culture (2019) Fernando Lozano is Professor of Ancient History at the University of Seville, Spain. His research focuses on the study of Roman religion during the Empire and, specifically, on the imperial cult, as well as Reception studies.
